program effectiveness data:

Explanation:

Credentialing examination pass rate is defined as the number
of student graduates who pass, on first attempt, the American Registry of
Radiologic Technologists (ARRT) certification examination or an unrestricted
state licensing examination compared with the number of graduates who take the
examination within six months of graduation.

Job placement rate is defined as the number of graduates employed
in the radiologic sciences compared to the number of graduates actively seeking
employment in the radiologic sciences. The JRCERT has defined not actively
seeking employment as: 1) graduate fails to communicate with program
officials regarding employment status after multiple attempts, 2) graduate is
unwilling to seek employment that requires relocation, 3) graduate is unwilling
to accept employment due to salary or hours, 4) graduate is on active military
duty, and/or 5) graduate is continuing education.

Program
completion rate is defined as the number of students who complete the program
within 150% of the stated program length.
The program must establish a benchmark for its program completion
rate. The program specifies the entry
point (e.g., required orientation date, final drop/add date, final date to drop
with 100% tuition refund, official class roster date, etc.) used in calculating
program’s completion rate.
